I just got my first smoker yesterday and made my first fatty today. I'm already dreaming up what kind of fatty I'm going to make next weekend!

Here was my first attempt at making a fatty. It's 1lb of ground beef, 1lb of ground pork, spinach, mushrooms, onions, and of course bacon.

First off Welcome Aaron to SMF. You'll love this place for it's full of good folks that would love to help you with just about anything to do with smoking. I see you have found the fatties I think that they are like a welcoming present cause most folks haven't seen or heard of them before this site. your fattie looks awesome and you have the picture thingy down so the only thing left for you to do is Go Get More Stuff To Smoke.

Welcome to your New Addiction
 
I have a brinkmann Smoke'N Grill charcoal smoker. I used hickory chunks for the smoke. I don't know what temperature I smoked it at though. If you are familiar with this smoker I smoked it with the gauge between in the I and D in ideal. I let it smoke for about 2.5 hours, but it was done at about 2. I was also smoking some bacon wrapped chicken breast at the same time and wanted to wait for them to be good and done, but I couldn't wait any longer and went a head and tore into that fatty.

I think this weekend I will make two smaller fatties. a pork one with cream cheese and chipottle seasoning, and a pizza fatty. I think I'm already hooked!
 
Looks good - at some point you may want to try a naked fatty - just toss a chub on the smoker - simple and delicious.

Elly, lately we have been stuffing the fattie's but have not put the bacon weave on & like the flavor better.

The smoke seems to go deeper into the sausage & it's not as filling to eat.

I will have to try a naked one next.
